How did your lopsided math/science student do in admissions?

My son is pretty lop-sided. AP classes in calc, stat, physics, econ, computer science, honors everything else and grades def better in the math/sciences. SATs 740M, 710Cr, 600W. The 710 CR delighted me; I guess it’s more the writing that is his nemesis. He tends to be very brief and to the point which did not help with essay gradings. GPA only ok, accepted Pitt, Temple, Penn State branch, Univ South Carolina. Only schools he appled to.
